Hello, I’m David Tucker Whitaker
Over the past two decades, I’ve worn a lot of hats. Progressive roles in sales, marketing, and product leadership, with venture-backed startups all the way up to Fortune 500 enterprises. I've helped a lot of successful business to grow, acquiring over 2 million users, and generating over $30 million in revenue.
But you know what? None of that matters.
What matters is that somewhere along the path of corporate success, I realized that I was on the wrong path.
The Breaking Point
My life changed In 2019 when I hit a wall. Hard.
After struggling with my physical and emotional health for years, I was finally forced to get my life in order. I was spiraling in depression and chronic ailments for months, seemingly unable to pick myself as I had so many times before, until a line from a Robert Frost poem helped to pull me back from the brink:
“The only way out is through.”
The Way Forward
In the years that followed, I committed to myself healing both physically and emotionally, and to cultivating a discipline for continuous self-improvement. Not just in terms of professional skills and technical acumen, but by truly embracing the foundational truths of the Bible, my identity and responsibility as a child of God.
Moreover, I incorporated practical wisdom and insights from stoic philosophy, behavioral psychology, neuroscience, nutrition, and more. What I discovered is through His word, and the revelation of His creation, we have all the tools we need to live healthy, prosperous, and abundant lives.
For The Greater Good
I write to help people move forward. To help those looking to become their best selves develop the tools to get there. At home, at work, and in their community.
This isn’t just mental or physical wellness. It’s more holistic. It’s about achieving wellness across all of the dimensions of our lives.
The Bible says that “all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28). That means that there are two surefire steps to creating total wellness in our lives:
Love God
Be who He’s made us to be.
Step one is pretty easy, but many of us get stuck on step two. Operating in His purpose for our lives isn’t always straightforward or easy. It takes courage, hard work, lots and lots of self-examination, and the discipline to address the things that we encounter.
